A fight broke out Monday in the Turkish parliament between the MPs of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), and the pro-Kurdish People’s Democratic Party (HDP).

When an HDP deputy approached the parliament podium, the AKP MPs started making remarks against this deputy, and stated that the HDP, which speaks about democracy, supports the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK)—which Ankara considers to be a terrorist organization, reported Cumhuriyet daily of Turkey. 

Subsequently, the argument became more heated, and it led to a fight.

As a result, an HDP deputy was injured, and he received medical treatment from the parliament physician.
